In addition, our goal is to help students learn problem-solving skills when faced with conflicts or dilemmas. Students learned about using their WIT and don’t throw a fit for conflict management.
WIT means W=WALK away, I=IGNORE, and T=TALK it out. There are many other ways to manage conflicts such as tell them to stop, make a deal, go to another game, share and take turns, wait and cool off, or apologize. If a problem continues after trying to resolve it three ways or if you feel threatened, you ask for help by telling an adult such as the bus driver, teacher, lunch monitors, counselor, nurse, or principals. Each classroom has a IT'S YOUR CHOICE! Do you have a small problem? Try 2 of Kelso's Choices. Poster displayed in classrooms. We encourage students to refer to these strategies.
